Trivia

  • On the day of this episode's premiere, the Soviet Union officially dissolved.
  • Marge's hair is not as tall in this episode as it normally is shown. Presumably, her hair is shorter so there is less to wear in her famous updo.
  • Jacqueline appears to be a smoker in this episode, she has not smoked in any other episode, and has presumably quit.
  • Mr. Burns is seen playing on a Ms. Pac Man arcade cabinet in his office.

Cultural references

  • Marge and Homer sing along to "You Light Up My Life" playing on the radio.
  • While Homer is trying to get a job, "9 to 5" is playing.
  • Bart proposes Kool Moe Dee as a name for the baby
  • Grampa winning his house in a crooked '50s game show where Grampa later ratted on everybody and got off scot-free is a reference to the real Quiz Show scandal.

Homer's resume additions

  • This episode marked several additions to Homer's resume.
    • Springfield Miniature Golf Course: Groundskeeper (Quit due to insufficient salary)
    • Pitiless Pup Attack Dog School: Dog trainer (Quit after finding work too hazardous)
    • Ye Olde Springfield Village: Candlemaker (Fired for substandard performance)
    • Slash-Co Knives: Door-to-door salesman (Presumed fired for slashing an old lady's hand)
    • Millions-for-Nothing Pyramid Seminar: Ground-level participant (Organization dissolved after founder committed suicide by jumping out the window when hearing police sirens)
    • Gulp & Blow Tacos: Service trainee (Quit in order to make an application to Springfield Nuclear Power Plant)

Goofs

  • When Homer is writing his goodbye letter, he scrawls over Patty's name in the letterhead and writes his own name underneath. The next time the letter is seen, Patty's name is only crossed out and Homer's name is off to the right, positioned diagonally.
  • At the end of the episode, when Homer tells the kids what a blessing they are, Maggie's bow is missing in one shot.
